A land guarding ancient treasures, where the purple of a millennia-old codex meets the black of the tastiest liquorice

An ancient dwelling in a location that exudes history. The centuries mingle in a succession of styles and architectural details. Artistic too. Here the sea dialogues with the past to give you an intense experience, that is poised between culture and pleasure. The historic centre of Rossano is just a few kilometres away. In addition to its elegant buildings, you can admire the sumptuousness of the cathedral and be dazzled by the pages of the Codex Purpureus Rossanensis. A patrimony of UNESCO, it is among the oldest and most precious illuminated Byzantine manuscripts in existence. In 20 minutes by car, the Sibari Archaeological Park awaits you. Walking among its ruins, you can still perceive the splendour of one of the most flourishing cities of the Magna Graecia. It’s guaranteed that afterwards, you will need to attenuate all those emotions by diving into the deep blue of our sea.

Even more

You can enhance this proposal by going for the discovery of a story that has a sweet and unmistakable flavour. One that began around three centuries ago behind the gates of the Amarelli of Rossano liquorice factory. Then there is the Capo Colonna archaeological park and the towns of Crotone and Castrovillari, just a stone’s throw away. Choose to visit these accompanied by an expert guide.
